been watching the tv show since the start and have a good memory for players who stand out as "quality" over that time,would be interested to hear how highly these guys are rated by other players as well as other armchair viewers picks...

    Massie29 should definatly be in as an MTT player. I dont really understand this guy, he consistantly wins but never moves up stake he either cashes all his winnings out or he likes being a big fish in a little pond, but either way he is good enough to move up.

    Tbh I'm suprised AJS hasn't been picked when I was on Sky a few months ago he was terrible no offence AJS. But has improved his game loads and a much better player now. Still hes dead money on the cash tables but who isn't ;-) x

    Interesting you say that, when I was on Sky a while back when I 1st started out here I guess 1.5-2 years ago Offshoot used to play on my tables so like £200nl+ he was a decent player very spewy back then but who isn't. 

    I think we had a grudge match HU where I won like 10-12 buyins. Was an insane match and I ran pretty hot. He still continued to multi table and was always a decent winning player. I left Sky for a while and when I came back pretty recently (few months ago) infact, I no longer saw him along with a few other players that used to be regs - Kegsy etc.

    Then one day helping a friend who was playing 25-50p I noticed Offshoots name, I imagine he must of hit a sick downswing or something from when he used to play higher. But he would have an edge on alot of the regs at these stakes and I think he was always a decent player, so maybe hes improved I don't know but yeah interesting you say that.

    Thats where ive seen him and played him, lots, at NL50 - the guys a good good player, and reading what you just wrote, he's obviously learnt alot about how to win. Obviously never had the pleasure of speaking to him directly in the chatbox or anything as he's always mini view and on about 18 thousand tables, but ive watched a video he made on you tube, and he makes the game look very simple (I know it is a simple game really, but hes a smooooth operator) - Wudn't be surprised at all to see him on the show on saturday.

    Ajs i think will be a deffo inclusion,

    fivanovic has disappeared off the face of the earth, but i know had a terrible run couple of months ago.

    Keysasose is another good player who could be in the mix

    Also I think they should take a look at a low/mid stakes player called 5toneface! But this thread won't affect things because they would of already picked there top 50 from last week anyway!

    yeah i gave up trying to get sound on it, it was only a test anyway.

    i remember that HU. i tilt too easily playing HU and im not very good with stoplosses so i dont really play it anymore.

     I think a year or so ago i wasnt very good at all, would tilt too much, call too much, generally spew but the games were a lot softer so it was easy to make money. I went on a downswing playing NL500+ so decided to move down and work on my game. I stick to playing nl50-nl100 with the occassional nl200 now because its stress-free, no more -£4k+ days. I think they have more of a negative impact on your mood than the big winning days have a positive impact. Also a lot of the regs are a lot better now so no point in playing in games where i have little to no edge.

    thanks for the kind words DOHHHHHH, i tihnk they will have contacted people already so no luck for me.
